Wong Tai Sin Temple in Hong Kong

Wong Tai Sin Temple was established in 1921 and is located on the southern side of Lion Rock in the north of Kowloon. It is the most popular Taoist temple in Hong Kong as is also renowned among overseas Chinese in Southern Asia, Europe and America. It commemorates the famous monk Wong Tai Sin (also known as Huang Chu-ping), who was born around 328AD and became a deity at Red Pine Hill in his later life. Locals believe that every earnest prayer for Wong Tai Sin will ensure that your every wish will come true. As a result, the temple welcomes an endless procession of worshipers who come to burn incense and pray.[China.org.cn/VCG]
